Default 7K post - NYE Photoshoot - Happy New Year!

Haven't done anything new but decided to do a small shoot.





Somebody did a hit and run on my car while it was parked on the street a few months back already rusting...

Looks pretty good, just need a little clean up with the body and paint-and you're done! Wald lip, very nice touch up front too! Quick question. Are you running a retractable license plate? If so, any more information on this? Thx!

Why havent you got the panel fixed?

As clean as this SC is, I wouldnt drive it a day without that damage. I am so **** about my car tho..

The stance, color combo, and wheel choice looks great. One of my favorite shots is the one through the fence.

Yep, I got the manual retractable frame. I think it was from Swift for $50. The motorized one runs over $120

No money! I've been modding this car with my own money which was tough enough through college, and now I'm back in grad school so definitely no extra flow. Insurance didn't cover it because I no longer have comprehensive (dunno if you remember my old threads but this SC was totaled twice).

Also I fear if I do get it fixed, it will just happen again. Until then, I have to to wait until I can get air and have a nice garage spot then get everything fixed.

Nope.. though I should be. My center pipe sits 2" off the ground. This car is getting quite a beating from driving in LA.

Nice ride man. If an SC is ever in the cards for me, this is how I would essentially want it to look.
